Gas-Insulated Switchgear (GIS) is a revolutionary high-voltage power distribution apparatus. It encapsulates almost all key substation components—except the main power transformer—such as circuit breakers, disconnectors, earthing switches, instrument transformers, busbars, and surge...

A current-carrying wire generates a magnetic field around it—a fundamental physical phenomenon first conclusively demonstrated by Danish physicist Hans Christian Oersted in 1820. In his classic experiment, when an electric current flowed through a wire, a parallel compass needle placed be...

Overcurrent protection is a fundamental scheme in power systems. Three-zone overcurrent protection is a sophisticated coordinated scheme comprising Instantaneous Overcurrent Protection (Zone 1), Time-Delayed Overcurrent Protection (Zone 2), and Definite-Time Overcurrent Protection (Zo...

The Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) is the system's "last line of defense." Its mission is to act immediately at all costs upon a fault. Therefore, it does not require, nor is it rated for, the "Short-Time Withstand Current (Icw)" parameter, which belongs to the "waiters" (Type B breakers). Dur...

In electrical switches, a “Pole” (P) refers to the number of independent circuit paths the switch can control or interrupt. One “pole” corresponds to one independent current-carrying path. For a Transfer Switch, its number of poles determines how many lines it switches s...

Short-time withstand current (Icw) refers to the ability of a circuit breaker to withstand a specified short-duration current (e.g., 0.05, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, or 1 second) under defined voltage, short-circuit current, and power factor conditions without tripping. The rated short-time withstand curr...

Imagine a tiny metal strip inside your breaker. When you plug in too many devices, excess current flows, just like overworking a muscle. This current heats up the "bimetallic strip." Made of two metals bonded together, they expand at different rates when heated, causing the strip to bend. This ...

The XGN15-12 is a type of high-voltage ring main unit (RMU), a crucial component in 10kV to 12kV electrical distribution networks. Its primary role is to receive and distribute electrical power reliably and safely. The heart of this unit is a Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6) gas-insulated load switch,...

A Frame Circuit Breaker, also known as an Air Circuit Breaker (ACB), is a core protective component in low-voltage distribution systems, responsible for power distribution and providing protection against overload, short-circuit, and under-voltage faults. The W1 series, as a typical representat...

An MCCB is a vital component in electrical distribution systems, designed to protect circuits from damage caused by overcurrent, short circuits, and, in some models, undervoltage. Its key feature is a molded insulating housing that encapsulates all critical components—contacts, arc chute,...

The ZGS11-12, often called the "American-style compact substation," is an integrated power distribution solution that combines high-voltage switching equipment, the transformer, and low-voltage functionality within a single sealed oil tank. Known for its small footprint, fully insulated design,...

GGD is a fixed AC low-voltage power distribution device, suitable for power systems in power plants, substations, and industrial enterprises. GCK, GCS, and MNS are withdrawable switchgear with modular drawer designs, widely used for power distribution, motor control, and lighting systems.
